Vlastimil Petrjela: It is not time to speak about provocation

22 October 2007 14:34 (UTC +04:00)

Bakuâ€™s 5:1 victory over Neftchi has not disappointed me so much. As you see the match did not end in successful results for usâ€, Neftchi club head coach Vlastimil Petrjela told APA-Sport.
The Czech coach considered himself responsible for the match result. â€œWe have been slaughtered. I did not expect such result. We know that football is a game and it always has winners and losers but we should not lose it 1:5.
I can not make changes to the team now as I have problem with reserve footballers. There is no footballer to substitute. We suffer from gaps in some positions especially in defence and midfield flanks. We are sure of solving these problemsâ€.
Pterjela declined to exactly answer whether there was provocation against the team. â€œIt is our inner problem. It is not time to speak about provocation. We think such things happen. We need mobilizing our effortsâ€. /APA-Sport/
